About this movie

Part Kafka, part Agatha Christie and part Monty Python, Russian director Karen Shakhnazarov's surreal satire of Communism follows an Everyman engineer named Varakin (Leonid Filatov) who arrives in a remote city where nothing quite makes sense, but everyone acts as if it does. And once he arrives in Zerograd, he finds himself unable to escape.
